We switched some of our stack from k8s and swarm to Fargate, and API Gateway (Lambda). I don't know whether I enjoyed the switching, I mean it's just learning a new stack and applying it; but I do currently enjoy not having to manage anything myself and I like that there's no internal abstractions that are leaking out to the devs as they do their work.
There's a thin layer of lock-in which I'm aware of, but not afraid of. In exchange I get a lot of peace of mind, cost savings, and importantly, a lot of things are someone else's problem.
As with any tech the important thing is not adopting something because it's popular, but only adopting it if it helps you. That requires you to spend a little time learning about it first.
How about yourself, are you mulling a switch or in the process?
